TY - CHAP U1 - Konferenzveröffentlichung A1 - Skutnik, Marc A1 - Lo Iacono, Luigi A1 - Neuhaus, Christian T1 - Methods of Data Processing and Communication for a Web-based Wind Flow Visualization T2 - Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Web Information Systems and Technologies, Volume 1: WEBIST, 2016 , Rome, Italy N2 - This paper presents methods for the reduction and compression of meteorological data for web-based wind flow visualizations, which are tailored to the flow visualization technique. Flow data sets represent a large amount of data and are therefore not well suited for mobile networks with low data throughput rates and high latency. Using the mechanisms introduced in this paper, an efficient transfer of thinned out and compressed data can be achieved, while keeping the accuracy of the visualized information almost at the same quality level as for the original data.
